Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

The Degebian mountain goat was a lifeform of undetermined origin, characterized by its ability to negotiate steep mountain terrain.

Leonard McCoy compared James T. Kirk to a Degebian mountain goat while climbing the rock wall in the USS Enterprise gymnasium in 2279. (TOS novel: In the Name of Honor)

In 2372, Kor commented that a ledge, on a crevice on a Hur'q planet that Worf told him was there when he fell, would have only been large enough for a Degebian mountain goat, not a Klingon warrior such as himself. (DS9 episode: "The Sword of Kahless")
